The perfect birthday gift for the sensitive and caring Cancer! Order today!

Home is where the heart is for sensitive and caring Cancer (June 21–July 22). People born under this Water sign are exceedingly nurturing, with a strong sense of empathy that allows them to identify with the predicaments of others. They're unwaveringly loyal to all who support and encourage them—even colleagues are treated like family, which Cancer values above all else!

Perseverance is another great strength; but just like the crab that represents them, Cancer is inclined to withdraw into their shell—especially when it comes to conflict. But their intuition and intelligence alone is enough to ensure success in any endeavour, while Cancer's capacity for unconditional love is greater than just about any other zodiac sign!

Hello again,
Ok, so we have established that the "zodiac colour wheel" was used as a reference for the inclusion of an amber-coloured stone. Can you kindly provide the "meaning" and/or "symbolism" of this colour?
Thanks!

Hello and thank you for your question.
Each astrology sign has different personalities and characteristics.
At the centre of this coin is a larger Swarovski crystal embellishment; its amber colour also represents those born under the Water sign known for tenacity, sympathy, imagination and persuasiveness. Thanks!

I also, was quite surprised to see that the traditional ruby was not used in this piece. Although it is rather pleasant to see another colored stone in place of the ruby can you please tell me the name and color of the stone used for this coin as well as all the other months. Thank you.

Hello and thank you for your question!
For the Cancer zodiac sign we used the zodiac wheel colour that corresponds to a bright yellow sunflower colour for the June-July sign. We will post the colour wheel on the website for each sign so that you can see the other colours for the remaining zodiac signs!
Thanks

I am wondering the same thing...I was going to buy my friend a coin to celebrate her 65th birthday and the 150th birthday of Canada (2017). The coin for July - Cancer; however after reviewing all websites with the stone representing July, it is certainly the Ruby. I looked for my birthstone and my daughters and they are not represented in your wheel. I am not sure why you would not make them compatible with the birthstone charts used by jewelers everywhere. Is there a reason for this. Swarovski certainly has all the stone colors for each astrological month.

Hello and thank you for your question!
We used a zodiac colour wheel for this series, not the traditional stones that are associated with your birth month this year as a way to differentiate these coins from the 2016 Birthstone series.
Thanks!

In this case, as well as other zodiac signs, the sign of Cancer covers more than one month. In this case, Cancer is June 21 - July 22. Therefore, to use the birthstone Ruby to represent July only would obviously miss representing the June birthstone, pearl. So unless they include both June & July birthstones, the decision to use the zodiac stone was a good one.

Hello,
I am no astrology buff, by any means. But the majority of net-research I have done suggests that ruby is the stone representative of people born in July (Cancer and/or Water sign). Can you kindly explain why the Cancer-coin is decorated with an amber-coloured stone?
Thanks
